:huh I knew that Pac had been floored by one, but I wasn't aware that Khan had been KTFO by one. Whats this about Harrisons chin...is it bad?
i was going to post about this fight. This, on paper is a good fight. Khan win and he lives up to his hype and can push on to the mayweather-esc fights hes always flapping his gums about. Valero wins and exposes khan as the waste of PPV money that he is and all the attention khan has gotten through punching bums and headbutting legends moves on to him. my prediction: Valero wins by KO inside of 3 rounds.
Your knowledge is terrible. You completely forget Khan's dominant win over Kotelnik who - while not a great champion by any means - was/is a solid fighter with good fundamentals and Khan won at least 9/10 rounds. He has evidently improved under Roach, and if you can't see this, you're a tool. Not only that, but your comment about Kevin Mitchell being the best light-weight in Britain at the time of the Prescott defeat is rubbish, seeing as Mitchell wasn't even a light-weight at the time.
Khan cant stand and trade with him, he's just not that fighter and Valero is teak-tough. Valero has the footwork speed to keep up with Khan and close off the ring. Valero seems to have enough head movement and defense to get in and out and land punches on Khan. He wont be kept off by a strong jab and he's got fast enough hands to land hard and often. It would be a long tough night for Khan and I think he gets stopped. I dont think he would be ahead on the cards either.
